Akshay Kumar in 'Namaste London' sequel, titled 'Namaste England'

Akshay Kumar and Vipul Shah are best friends in the industry. With the producer-director always opting to make films with his favourite Bollywood buddy Akki, we hear the sequel to Namastey London is already in process. 

Our sources claim, "Akshay and Vipul were in talks for the film for quite sometime now. The film will be titled Namastey England this time and will be shot across Punjab and London." Will the story continue from where it ended? "No, this would be a fresh story with different characters and a totally differeny plot," revealed our source.

Although Akshay has already signed the film, we hear Vipul has not yet approached Katrina Kaif to reprise her role. "The movie demands a new couple and it won't have Katrina." But the 'hunt for the actress is still on', confirmed our source. "Vipul is looking for someone who can act well because this time, it would be a very performance driven role."

The team begins the recce soon and will be seen camping in Punjab from January 2016 and are eyeing for a late 2016 release. Knowing Akshay's usual strategy of doing 3-4 films a year, this ain't any surprise!
